Three Card Poker

Million Dollar 3 Card Poker

Three Card Poker is a casino table game in which players compete against the dealer. In the Texas Hold’em variant, both player and dealer alike are dealt three cards, with the player aiming to make a better three-card poker hand than the dealer.

Before being dealt cards, a player starts by placing an initial ante bet, and also has the option to place a Pair Plus wager. After the player(s) and dealer receive three cards, the plyer can then either place a “Play” bet, otherwise fold their hand. The dealer’s cards, which were face down up until now, are then revealed and must be at least Queen high to qualify. If not, the player wins his Ante bet, and his Play bet is returned.

If the dealer’s hand meet the standard and is better than that of the player, the player loses his Ante and Play wagers. If the player’s hand is better, he wins and doubles his Ante and Play wagers. Meanwhile, the Pair Plus wager is independent from the strength of the dealer’s hand, with payouts based upon predetermined odds provided.

6 Card Bonus

Some casinos, however, also offer the opportunity to place another side wager called a “Millionaire Maker”. At the Borgata Casino this wager is known as a “6 Card Bonus” bet and is set at a minimum of $5. Once taken, the player and dealer’s hands are combined to make the best five-card combination from those six cards. This is the bet “Harold M” took.

Harold was subsequently dealt the Ace, Queen, and Ten of diamonds, while the dealer received a King, Jack, and Nine of diamonds, which together completed a rare Six Card Diamond Royal. So rare, in fact, that the chances of it being hit is just 1 in 20,358,520. Furthermore, up until that point the bonus had never been released at the Borgata.
